Abstract

The book represents a collective effort, the result of research in cultural studies on the territory and its social dimensions in the field. With a sociocultural, critical and Latin American approach, this work aims to understand sociocultural phenomena immersed in intercultural contexts of southern Puebla and its border areas with Veracruz and Oaxaca, which express different forms of social territorialization. The starting point is the fragility of the populations living in this border area, as a result of massive migratory processes that lead to uprooting and oblivion, and that at the same time revive resistance to the abandonment of native languages, myths, rituals, traditional knowledge, cultivation practices, food and breeding, intergenerational values, etc.
